The band was named after A bad luck #13 45 Titled Fear of Lipstick . The previous name was The Livids but a band down in Florida (I think ) had already used that name and Eric made a deal that the first to get signed kept the name , needless to say we lost but all of us were very happy to have the name Fear of Lipstick , we also use to play a song written by germs lipstick called Bad Luck # 13 ( a little too much we thought ) on the first demo we put out in 02 or 03 called Can't Get Along , but that Demo as well as the one to follow it titled Stay Home were put in a big black box and buried under the sea ! The boys have really stepped up the game since I left in 05 !! Good on them too !
